I just sold my house last summer. The buyer had a home inspector come in and he prepared a 10 page report on stuff that should be fixed. I said no to all of it except for radon remediation. Nothing else was a code violation, safety problem, or HOA violation. My agent advised me to fix most of the stuff listed. I refused. My house sold anyway. I view some of those home inspections as a way for the buyer to get 2 bites at the apple. First they negotiate price. Then they try to negotiate price again after the home inspector gets done. Anyway my house sold with a minimum of fixing on my nickel at a price I was happy with. FWIW my attitude on home ownership has changed thru the years. I no longer view owning a house as in "investment". With maintenance being perpetual, I agree that houses aren't investments.

I know one thing, moving from Florida condo living to a home in Texas is an astounding change in property taxes. Our property tax went up this past year...to $610. Lol.
